C19

The following work is a video that I produced as a metaphorical social examination of the current COVID-19 situation. It explores how fragile the systems that are currently built into society are. The sound of the piece is a medical sound recorder of the lungs of a COVID-19 patient when he is breathing; the visual part in slow motion is a group of people that have collapsed, one over the other, and are trying to breathe and escape under the pressure that they are receiving from one another. The original footage in my work is from archive material, which I have processed. This work investigates the relationship between the individual and the group's behaviour how they exist, coexist and interact.
